Developing Excellent Students
Committed to Engaging with Their Local Communities
A Millennial Impact Project by New Jersey Campus Compact
changebuilder mission
New Jersey Campus Compact (NJCC) and our partners are embarking on our most ambitious shared task yet – to support literally thousands of college-going millennials capable of demonstrating excellence while engaging with and volunteering in communities, thereby enabling them to make a difference in their local communities as Changebuilders. This will see a surge in the overall number of young socially responsible graduates with the skills required to be successful – both in achieving their own life goals and in their efforts to be part of change for the better.
01.
Develop sequences of community engagement opportunities

in support of over 3,000 students’ educational experience so as to deepen knowledge of and commitment to local community issues, including those who intend to transfer from partnering community colleges to baccalaureate
institutions.

02.
Increase employability by developing 21st century workplace skills
through high quality community engagement sequences of experiences. These local experiences will also contribute to thousands of millennial Changebuilders staying in New Jersey upon graduation and supporting the economy
03.
Increase student retention by offering a greater range of community engagement experiences and partnerships with community colleges and baccalaureate institutions.

This will also improve positive transfer pathways for a more diverse population of student volunteers
04.
Significantly increase overall college student community engagement in New Jersey

We will grow the number of community engaged students each year by over 500 annually, ultimately helping to develop thousands of engaged citizens ready to graduate and address pressing local community issues such as education equality, family health choice, and meaningful career opportunity
05.
Ensure that a significant number of nonprofits and community service agencies increase their capacity
